## Observation
openQA test in scenario sle-12-SP1-Server-DVD-Incidents-ppc64le-qam-minimal@ppc64le fails in
[partitioning](https://openqa.suse.de/tests/792623/modules/partitioning/steps/2)
The past 3 tests are failing in maintenance a the same point. Seems like the 'partitioning' step of the Installation has not be recorded. There's no screenshot of it, and the video is not working for ppc64le. The logs are not helpful either. Probably what happens is that `send_key $cmd{next};` is pressed twice or something like that. This cannot be a production bug because the installation comes from the GM iso and it was working 2 days ago for the last 3 months.
## Reproducible
Fails since (at least) Build [:128561.dbus-1.4134](https://openqa.suse.de/tests/792564)
## Expected result
Last good: [:128518.sane-backends.4257](https://openqa.suse.de/tests/791622) (or more recent)
## Further details
Always latest result in this scenario: [latest](https://openqa.suse.de/tests/latest?arch=ppc64le&machine=ppc64le&test=qam-minimal&flavor=Server-DVD-Incidents&distri=sle&version=12-SP1)
# Hypotheses

* H2.1.1 reproducible on x86_64
* H2.1.2 reproducible always
